This newborn pose is called The Froggy and should never be attempted by a photographer until they have learned how to do it safely. This pose is always, always, always done as a Photoshop composite. We create this pose by first taking a photo holding the babies wrists in place, then taking a second photo holding the top of the babies head in place. We then take those 2 images and merge them together in Photoshop to create this :)

Sweet Bloom Photography is trained in newborn safety and we have the knowledge to pose your baby safely. I am within arms reach at all times -or- have a second set of hands on stand by, when needed. I take safety very seriously :)

I like to schedule newborn sessions for when your baby is between 7-21 days old. This is when your baby is still naturally very sleepy and likes to curl up for all of those sweet poses :)

Newborn sessions take place in my cozy in-home studio located in Lexington KY. My studio is overflowing with vintage props, cozy wraps, organic hats & headbands, etc. You don’t have to worry about bringing anything for your session, we will take care of it all!
